    The knock on TJ: no consistent motor, lack of killer instinct & gets easily blocked. He needs to get a long stronger, he doesn't look like a POWER forward yet.

    Jones = the much better PPat.
    If he can provide that kind of production on a consistent level this season, we've got a BUNCH of wins coming out way!!

    EXCITED MUCH.

    Jones is clearly an NBA player. Even if you throw out his incredible athleticism and freakish build, he makes intelligent decisions.

    WAY early! Let's see a few games and see who steps up. :)-

    What's with the free throws? Ouch!

    Damn, Carter-Williams looking like a nice player, early.

    On another note, Kazemi seems totally overhyped

    Jones is hungry for that 4 spot and I think if he proves it this offseason, he SHOULD be the starting 4. He's athletic, decent shooter, good post moves, good defensive and is unselfish. Let him start and keep Asik and Lin!

    If he had that Killer instinct he would be an allstar.
    For now let him play in the Summer League.

    Yeah, you would think Smith would dominate.

    If you like MCW, I think Dante Exum is a very similar player coming to the NBA in 2014 or 2015 (matters if he stops by a college first).

    Unfortunately the NBA playoffs are not like ProAm games... Just saying...

    And notice how Bev has 0 turnovers and the opposing point guard has 8... Bev is playing good, not forcing his offense and letting other guys get a chance to contribute. He has nothing to prove...

    Seriously. If D-Mo really has put on 30 lbs of muscle and TJones continues to develop like this, we just may be set at PF already

    It's summer league, and most of these players DON'T belong. Nothing sad about that. It's like that for all the teams. Two or three players on each team are legitimate NBA players.

    Fuuuuuuuuuck. I totally didn't realize this was on CSN! I set my alarm, got up, and couldn't figure out why NBATv was out. I was too sleepy to consider checking the board. :(
